Tungsten Alloy Penetrators

Tungsten penetrators, as well as steel alloy armor-piercing penetrators, must withstand the shock incurred while punching through armor plating. Penetrators designed for this purpose have a greatly strengthened case with an especially hardened and shaped nose. Tungsten alloy armor-piercing cartridges are also available as small arms ammunition, primarily for use as an anti-materiel round, for armored vehicles, concrete bunkers, tanks and other defenses, depending on the caliber of the firearms. This ammunition consists of a penetrator constructed of tungsten alloy or tungsten carbide, enclosed within a softer jacket, such as copper or aluminum. The product ammunition can range from rifle- and pistol-caliber rounds all the way up to tank rounds.

Kinetic Energy Penetrators

Kinetic energy penetrators — also known as long rod penetrators or LRPs — are a type of ammunition designed to penetrate vehicle armor. Much like a bullet penetrator, an LRP does not contain explosives and uses kinetic energy to penetrate the target.

The development of the modern kinetic energy penetrator combines two aspects of artillery design; high muzzle velocity and concentrated force. High muzzle velocity is achieved by using a projectile with a low mass and large base area in the gun barrel. Firing a small-caliber projectile wrapped in a lightweight outer shell — called a sabot —raises the muzzle velocity. Once the shell clears the barrel, the sabot is no longer needed and falls off in pieces. This leaves the projectile traveling at a high velocity with a smaller cross-sectional area and reduced aerodynamic drag during the flight to the target.
